The best games don't necessarily have to be complicated. It can be simple and easy to learn, yet still providing a challenge for the player. SEMBL, a new app from Artgig Apps, is that kind of game.

Match the Shape and Pattern

SEMBL is a game of replication. When you enter the game, you are presented with a unique design that you must recreate. Using simple touch controls, you can paint, cut, punch, stencil, or spin to transform your initial shape into the design you want.

There are two ways you can play the game: Journey or Challenge. In Journey, you master levels at your own pace, and earn stars by completing designs with the minimum number of possible moves. In Challenge, you try to complete as many designs as possible before the time runs out. Points are then awarded for speed, accuracy, and maxing out the time on the countdown bar.

When point-and-click adventure game The Silent Age first came out, it made quite the splash. Here was a game that appeared out of nowhere, but drew praises for its clever gameplay, stylish art, and great execution overall. Unfortunately the game wasn’t fully completed — hence the Episode One in the title — and fans had to wait quite some time for the sequel.

More than a year later, we’re finally here. The Silent Age: Episode Two was released last weekend, and it’s a great conclusion to a great game.

It’s been a while since I got hooked to a game so much to play it over and over again for days; the last game to do that for me was Threes. But, I’ve finally found a game that could match Threes! in terms of addictiveness. Called Rules!, the new game from TheCodingMonkeys requires you to follow simple rules and remember them in reverse order.

The new Plague Quarter offers three new bosses and two class challenges.

If you're a Hearthstone player, you'd probably set up your Calendar or Reminder to alert you of the upcoming wings in Curse of Naxxramas. Every Tuesday 23:59 PM PDT, Blizzard will release the new wings. And today, it's time to play the Plague Quarter.

The Plague Quarter

This wing brings three new bosses with a couple of unique abilities. For example, Noth the Plaguebringer introduces us to passive hero power where the hero power will be activated automatically based on a particular trigger, instead of by paying its mana cost. For example, Noth's power is triggered whenever one of your minion dies. On the other hand, Heigan the Unclean forces you to pay attention where you put your minions in play.

Here is the complete list of the new Bosses' hero power in Normal mode:

Similar to the Arachnid Quarter, you will get a total of six reward cards for completing the Normal mode and the Class Challenge in Plague Quarter. The reward cards for the Normal mode are Stoneskin Gargoyle, Unstable Ghoul, Studge Belcher, and the Legendary Loatheb. And, you will unlock Duplicate and Webspinner for beating the Mage and Hunter Class Challenges respectively.

In Bonza, you construct a crossword puzzle based on a clue and a set of letter boxes.

Nowadays, I almost never read the newspaper. But I remember poring over the daily crossword puzzles when I was younger. I love how they mix trivia knowledge and hint-based puzzle solving.

Over the past few days, I’ve been enjoying a crossword puzzle game called Bonza Word Puzzle. It is unique in that it shows you a hint and a bunch of letter boxes that you rearrange to construct a valid crossword puzzle.
